LOVES HIS HORSES.
An Incident From Dark Days of the
Equine Paradox.

Citizens who have been so fortunate as
to witness the wonderful performances of
Prof. Bartholomew's troupe of trained
horses now at the opera house, join in
asserting that the owner has properly
named his combination the Equine Para
dox. Il enjoyed it more than any attrac-
tion which has ever appeared at the opera
house. said a regular theater goer last
evening. THE mans control over a
horse is something wonderful, and still
they say that with a long lash he can cut
the'fesh of a horse fifty feet away. 1
hardly believe, however, that he ever pun
ished n OF his pets. The first night 1
attended the performance l expected to
see a friskY horse jump on the piano.
When | watched a herd OF high spirited
animals crowd on the stage and move at
the beck and call of Bartholomew. l
almost prayed that hone of them would
betray his confidence" But one expla-
nation can be given of the professors
seemingly superhuman control of his
horses-he has taught them to understand
every word he utters.
1t is said that about twelve ye airs ago
Bartholomew was stranded in Denver in
midwinter with a troupe of horses. By
selling the animals he could have realized
thousands of dollars. To keep them was
to see them go hungry and starve HIM
self. The man was to proud to disclose to
friends his real situation and the actual
state of affairs was not learned until a
gentleman accidentally discovered that
some change Bartholomew blushingly
requested was used in the purchase
of grain for his beloved horses while he
himself hungered.

A Pair of "Nut sheIl' Operators
Captured.

Two men, charged with engaging in
that artistic and lucrative pastime, the
success of which depends materially upon
the adeptness with which the operator
manipulates three nutshells and a tiny
rubber ball, were arrested in the Stock
Exchange saloon last evening. They
have been in the city for several days
but did no work until yesterday
afternoon. Upon this occasion they se-
lected the Grand Central, a Ferguson
street refreshment store, for the scene of
their swindling operations. The business
manager of the d%isreputable firm did the
talking and dealt the game, while
his partner, ar innocent appearing in
dividual laid a few wagers on the where
abouts of the uncertain rubber globe, the
factor In the transaction which changed
its position with the celebrity usually CON
coded a distinctive attribute of the Irish
mans flea. In a few minutes the two
gentlemen who are too strong to work and
too healthy to beg had Aeeced their I'M
.suspecting customers of $40.
When captured by the officers the men
affected to be strangers, and protested
that their arrest was the outcome of a
foul conspiracy. 1t is more than proba-
BILE that the confidence men will have an
opportunity of learning each others likes
and dislikes before separating or breath
ing outside a prison again.

The large emigrant waiting room i the
new depot is to be divided into two apart.
ments- The front and larger room will
be occupied by all the appurtenances nee
essary to the maintenance of a first class
restaurant. Its projectors declare that it
will be one of the finest lunch and meal
providing establishments Cd the line. The
rear apartment of the two will be used as
a waiting room for emigrant passengers.
As very few Of these travellers embark
from this point a large room for their use
would be unnecessary.
1t cannot at present be stated whether
or not this change will result in the clos
ing of the Pacific eating house, but it is
quite naturally supposed that it will sus-
pend operations after the opening of the
new dining hall.

Hon. II. w. Rothert, superintendent
of the deaf and dumb institute, yester-
day celebrated the twenty-ffty anniversa-
ry of his wedding. Although the gentle
man and his estimable lady have resided
in Council Bluffs but a short time, they
have a number of sincere friends, who
took much pleasure in extending congrat-
ulations on the happy occasion. A son,
Edward H., of Keokuk, is visiting with
them at present, and is so favorably i'm

of the city that he talks strongly of locat-

AND PIE.
A Move and Enjoyable Entertainment
Last Evening.

The entertainment at the Methodist
church last evening was a very enjoyable
affair. The programme was arranged in
two parts. The first consisted of vocal
and instrumental music, tableaux and
Rotations. After these exercises a
pumpkin pie feast arranged by the hospi-
table sisters was INDUCED in. They are
excellent cooks, perhaps excelling in the
construction of the pastry spread.
The meritorious features of the well
arranged and entertaining programme
were; Violin solos by Max Nichol and
Victor Debate; Miss Lille DePrato
accompanied the latter on the piano.
Mrs. DeCou's original poem Duke was
recited with fine elocutionary effect. As
a literary production it compares favor
ably with productions of a similar charac-
ter from famous authors. Mrs DeCou is
well known on the Pacific coast as the
California poetess. Pierce Marksville
rendered a selection in his usual pleasing
style and was heartily applauded. A trio
by Messrs. Brown, Smith and Vanston,
and Mr.. Myers solo were well received,
The tableaux Simple Simon in the Pic
ture Gallery" and Camp at Night" were
ingeniously presented.
The well managed and unique enter
tainment will be pleasantly remembered
by all who listened to the exercises and
assisted in destroying the pumpkin pie.

A Marvellous Record.

Mr. Allen Thorndyke Rice has an interest
ing article ine the October number of the
North american ReUieW on the compare
tive increase of Great Britain and the Uni
teb States within the past half century. A
few of the facts that he gives will not be I'M
interesting In fifty years the population of
the United Kingdom has increased at the
rate of ~ per cent.-from e, 900, 900 in 1887,
to 100000 in 1887. During fifty years
the population of the United States nearly
quadrupled-a ten times greater increase.
All of our cities have distanced English
cities in the percentage of their increase in
population. In fifty years the United King
dom has lost over 5000, 900 by emigration,
and nearly all of these have come to the
United States, and they are coming now
at the rate of 700 day. The percentage of
adults vino can write is 81 in the United
Kin gdOm, against 80 in the U-7ited States.
Inc United Kingdom has 20 ~ SCHOOL
teachers; the United States has 1860. The
United States has more new papers than all
the rest OF the world, and w pay lar more
for periodicals and books than the people of
the United Kingdom The United King
dom has $4, $50. 600, 900 Invested in railroads
the United States has 8S.339 2S5, S42-much
more than double ln the vflle of land
and property the proportion is still greater
to our credll. Ihe value u III ua.dcULtos
in fifty years trebled in the United King
DOM in this country the increase was five
fold The production of coal in the United
Kingdom was five-fold; in this country
eleven-fold The savings banks in the
United Kingdom in 1886 had on deposit
1890, 100000; the savings bank of the Uni
ted States 1904 100000.
These are only a few of the many COM
parsons in our favor, but they entitle the
American eagle to good honest scream. 1t
is not wrong to take pride in such mar
velous record.

ranslation of tho Roma lnS 0f
 Mrs. Thomas Oates.
(Los Angeles Herald.)


 Something over ten years ago Ar. Thomas Gates and his wife, most beautiful and amiable lady, born in this city, went to Ari- zona, where in short time the angel of death visited the new household, and Mrs. Gates left desolate the home she had so en. riched with her virtues and sweetness of character. The bsreaved husband deposit ed the remains of his beloved wife in the cemetery at Tucson, intending as soon as he could to have them exhumed and trans. lated to the city in which she had spent the happiest years of her life. It was not until recently that Mir. Gates found it pos sible to carry out his cherished dstermina- tion. It is well-known that eur old fellow townsman has for some time been the Su. Perintendent of the Territorial Prison of Arizona and during his term he has carried on that institution in manner that has given the greatest satisfaction to the public. both in the economy of its management, the reform of its conduct, and the many i'm provements he has instituted. MT. E, W. Moves has just received a letter from Mir. Gates informing him that he will start in a day or two for Los Angeles with the remains. Due announcement will be made eff their arrival here, and of the time wLea the ob sequies will take place, so that the many friends of the deceased lady and her hus. band may assist at them.
 Mrs. Gates was born in Los Angeles in about 1851. Her father. Mir. Prudhomme, had long been distinguished citizen of Los Angeles. His daughter received her edu- cation iR the Sisters school in this city, a school always celebrated for its successful training of young ladies and imparting to them the highest accomplishments. Miss Prudhomme profted in a peculiar manner from the advantages afforded by this ex- cellent seat of education, for she was noted as one of the brightest of its pupils. As a young lady she was exceedingly popular and universally loved on account of her sweet disposition and nohleness of character and when, at length, she united herself with Mir. Gates she became one of the shining lights of Los Angeles society. All old Los Angelenos will learn with satisfaction that the remains of this lady, so beloved and es- teemed in life, are to be soon translated to this city, and will not neglect to pay the last sad tribute of respect in their power to her memory.
